Increased prices of transport services still reflect to producer price indices for services

Compared to Q4 of 2022, the rise in producer price indices for services in total (Business to All, BtoAll) was particularly caused by higher prices of land transport services and transport services via pipelines as well as rental and operating services of own or leased real estate. The increase in prices was curbed by lower prices of business and other management consulting services and telecommunications services.

The annual change in prices of services for enterprises and the public sector (Business to Business, BtoB) was driven by the same service groups as in producer price indices in total (BtoAll).

Prices of services sold to households (Business to Consumers, BtoC) were increased particularly by higher prices of food and beverage serving services compared to previous year’s Q4. The increase was curbed especially by lower prices of rental and leasing services of cars and light motor vehicles.
